Great idea! The platforming mechanic is too hard for me though. I couldn't manage to stay on the small blocks in the second level while at the same time thinking about the perspective... ;)
Oh and nice graphics!

Incredible game, super concept. On a couple of levels I thought: "Wow, genius level design". And I managed to finish it, feels so good :D Maybe the inertia of the ball could be lower cause it can get frustrating really fast...

Awesome. I really liked the core mechanic and the level design was spot-on. The controls were a little slippery, and there was no background music. Really, those are the only drawbacks; it was a marvelous game.

This match really well with the theme. It is interesting and challenging. The draggin of the ball is too long doing the controls really hard to achieve simple things. The graphics are minimalistics and well done.

This was a very good game. I'v seen similar ones before, but this was just really entertaining. I love the oldschool feel too! The level designs were all good, as was most of the other aspects. Well done, or should I say, well played ;)

I didn't get very far myself, but I watched Wertle play it much more easily than me - and I really love the concept and level design!

Three pointers how the game would've been more accessible for me:
- Being allowed to still jump if I pressed the shift buttons a few milliseconds before the jump key.
- No inertia.
- Using for example Space or X to jump - it's not really "up" in the opposite world. I can grasp the concept of jumping/falling in mirrored directions, but pressing up to go down is of a discrepancy.

So far a lot of people have been pointing out the slipperiness of the player. I feel like infinite acceleration would have made the game different in an awkward way. For that reason, I kept the sliding effect in. It's just part of the game mechanic. As is the first point you mentioned.

The third point is something I didn't think about. I probably should have included the down button, but I simply never saw it from that perspective.

Nice game! At first I didn't like that the controls were a little slippery but I got used to it while playing.
The graphics are cool, and kudos for the game boy based colors. :)

Now, the level design was awesome! This is were this game really shined. I wish there were more levels, though...

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.

MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.

NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.

PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.

MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.

MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
